SPORTS & CAREER LITERACY PROGRAM
Metro Sports Fieldhouse is a non-profit organization 501(c)(3) that uses sports as a vehicle to promote disease and illness prevention through healthy active living, encourages key life skill development, and exposes our youth to new educational focus areas including but not limited to STEM, science & technology, and financial literacy programs. Our free programs will run April-November and will use sports (basketball, soccer, yoga, & dance) as a tool to encourage diversity and teamwork. It is our goal to provide youth with resources that enable them to realize their potential to become active, engaged, and thriving members of the community.
